This Quick Start deploys Varnish Cache Plus (VCP), a caching and HTTP acceleration technology by Varnish Software, on the AWS Cloud in about 30 minutes.

VCP delivers your web content faster through caching, and reduces backend server load while handling large numbers of simultaneous visitors, depending on your architecture. This Quick Start deploys VCP into a Multi-AZ configuration on AWS with asynchronous caching data replication between Availability Zones. You can choose to deploy VCP into a new or your existing environment. The Quick Start uses Ubuntu Linux as the operating system for the VCP instances.

Quick Starts are automated reference deployments that use AWS CloudFormation templates to deploy key technologies on AWS, following AWS best practices. This Quick Start was built by Varnish Software in collaboration with AWS solutions architects. Varnish Software is an AWS Partner Network (APN) Partner.
